OKC just always punches back this game. Minny can never take the lead.

really dumb fouls and the worst times.

Ant's fault. He's driving well before McDaniels has even put his second foot down. Both of the moving screen calls were Ant's bad

Not surprised by Ant's passiveness, his conditioning is still terrible.

That was about as obvious if a call as could be, and Dort wasn't selling at all - he legitimately got clipped. :crazy:

He and Brunson are the only guys who get even close to the number of calls they deserve on moving screens. Even they are regularly short changed on them, but that is because the referees are always failing to call them.

Not sure Finch could've schemed something up here. When a team gives up almost 20 offensive rebounds and like 15 3s, that's effort.

Felt like the TWolves defensively were stuck in no-man's land way too often. The rebounding was atrocious.

If they end up losing this game, the players have to take a lot of blame here.

They meant business from the tip off. I saw right away they were serious this game.

SGA has legit stopped flailing for quite some time now, hits the sweet middies and throws the perfect pass, and the FT merchant chants have stopped

Chet by himself has more points than Ant and Julius combined and Chet has the third most points on his team

Minnesota gave it all they could. OKC has an answer everytime they get close.
